drm/i915: Add support for precise vblank timestamping (v2)
v2: Change IS_IRONLAKE to IS_GEN5 to adapt to 2.6.37
This patch adds new functions for use by the drm core:
.get_vblank_timestamp() provides a precise timestamp
for the end of the most recent (or current) vblank
interval of a given crtc, as needed for the DRI2
implementation of the OML_sync_control extension.
It is a thin wrapper around the drm function
drm_calc_vbltimestamp_from_scanoutpos() which does
almost all the work.
.get_scanout_position() provides the current horizontal
and vertical video scanout position and "in vblank"
status of a given crtc, as needed by the drm for use by
drm_calc_vbltimestamp_from_scanoutpos().
The patch modifies the pageflip completion routine
to use these precise vblank timestamps as the timestamps
for pageflip completion events.
This code has been only tested on a HP-Mini Netbook with
Atom processor and Intel 945GME gpu. The codepath for
(IS_G4X(dev) || IS_GEN5(dev) || IS_GEN6(dev)) gpu's
has not been tested so far due to lack of hardware.
